Title: Star Wars Yoke question
Post by: Les on June 17, 2003, 11:04:05 am

Does anyone know where to purchase the cherry microswitches (A63) that are inside the handles of a Star Wars yoke?

I've looked around but I have no definite locks as too an exact replacement.  I was wondering if anyone else has had to replace these in thier yoke and what did they use?  Thanks.

These switches are very common, I have seen them at both Radio Shack and Fry's.  Can't find the exact ones at RS website, but these are similar except for the actuator levers http://www.radioshack.com/category.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F010%5F007%5F005%5F000&Page=1 (http://www.radioshack.com/category.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F010%5F007%5F005%5F000&Page=1)

If they only have the ones with actuators at Radio Shack, just break them off, the basic switch is identical.

Good luck
